How do I get access to the curvature tab? Thinking of doing some work concerning that actually.

Are the “Men In Black” real?

How do you see more earth the higher you go if earth is curving away for boats to dissipate behind?

2019-06-14 10:48:31 UTC  

@rightthehand Super basic geometry man

2019-06-14 10:49:01 UTC  

I’m good at trigonometry

2019-06-14 10:49:13 UTC  

If the earth is a ball curving away and you get high you can’t see around the balls curve

2019-06-14 10:49:33 UTC  

Look at the bottom, there's a diagram

2019-06-14 10:49:44 UTC  

The same can be done with a physical ball and a camera

2019-06-14 10:50:23 UTC  

This contradiction the boat is going to the horizon and gets blocked by the bulge of the curve but then when you ask why it doesn’t tilt away you say because there’s .01° of bend

2019-06-14 10:50:40 UTC  

No contradiction

2019-06-14 10:50:44 UTC  

When you zoom out looking at a ball you see the ball

2019-06-14 10:50:54 UTC  

Yup

2019-06-14 10:50:58 UTC  

When you zoom out on the ball earth it gets flat

2019-06-14 10:50:58 UTC  

Same with reality

2019-06-14 10:51:07 UTC  

Nope

2019-06-14 10:51:19 UTC  

At high altitude that is what happens

2019-06-14 10:51:43 UTC  

In an experiment with a physical ball it is almost impossible to get close enough for the analogy to hold

2019-06-14 10:51:48 UTC  

But the same happens

2019-06-14 10:52:20 UTC  

@rightthehand Read that

2019-06-14 10:52:40 UTC  

How flat is a 5 mile square cross section of earth?

2019-06-14 10:53:17 UTC  

I don’t read bullahit blogs

2019-06-14 10:53:19 UTC  

Depends how you view it

2019-06-14 10:53:26 UTC  

Really?

2019-06-14 10:53:30 UTC  

Read it man, I can vouch for it

2019-06-14 10:53:42 UTC  

So the physical structure of a 5 mile cross section of earth depending how you look at it will change

2019-06-14 10:53:53 UTC  

????

2019-06-14 10:54:26 UTC  

Yup

2019-06-14 10:54:30 UTC  

Really

2019-06-14 10:54:31 UTC  

Relatively flat anyways

2019-06-14 10:54:44 UTC  

It depends from what viewpoint you are looking at it from

2019-06-14 10:55:01 UTC  

I’m not asking you what it will look like I’m asking you what it will measure

2019-06-14 10:55:22 UTC  

If you take the entire bowl earth and cut out a 5 mile Square what will be the level of flatness of that particular cross-section

2019-06-14 10:55:45 UTC  

How many degrees of bend will it have?

2019-06-14 10:55:51 UTC  

I’ll tell you

2019-06-14 10:55:57 UTC  

.001

2019-06-14 10:56:04 UTC  

That’s flat

2019-06-14 10:56:10 UTC  

Sure, that might be accurate yes.

2019-06-14 10:56:13 UTC  

Flatter then flat actually

2019-06-14 10:56:29 UTC  

A large spherical earth is reasonably flat locally
